That's a great shot John! I got a similar one myself last year when Neptune was close to Venus, and about 4 years ago I got first glimpse and photo of Uranus as it passed near the Moon. For some reason, even with star maps and knowing my way around the sky pretty well, the proximity of something very obvious helps a lot!
